Question

If logM/N=5 and logP/N=7, what can you say about the relationship between M and P?. . A. M=2P. B. P=2M. C. P=100M. D. P=10M

Answer 1

Answer: 1000M

Step-by-step explanation: Took the test, hope this helps

Answer 2

log (M/N) = log M - log N
so log M - log N = 5
log (P/N) = log P - log N
so log P - log N = 7
If you subtract equation 2 from equation 1, you have log M - log P = -2
That means that log (M/P) = -2 ----> 10^-2 = M/P ---> P = 100M
